Microsoft Configuration Use Many Times
Jan 25, 2009I've used Microsoft Configuration a hundred times, no problems with that. I alway zero in on Startup check or unch0eck something and leave it at that.Tonight I noticed a tab marked "service" and investigated. There are lots of entries, all checked off, and many of them refer to programs long since deleted. What are these entries, can I uncheck some of tjhem, eg the ones belonging to programs long ago deleted? And most important why is this section separated from startup?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSpeed Up Using Microsoft Configuration
Feb 25, 2005I am currently using windows xp on my computer. I tried to speed up the computer by making some changes in msconfig. I went to selective startup and unchecked some boxes in startup. The changes didn't make a difference after I restarted the computer. I clicked on diagnostic startup by accident, so I then clicked normal startup and restarted my computer. Now help & support will not work. It keeps saying that windows can not start help and support due to system files not running. I also can not log onto the internet. It says aol must download files first before you can access. I hit yes and nothing happens. I tried to run error checking and it won't let me because it says there are some things not running. I also went into system information and checked the hard drive and it says that it failed. How I can fix this would be greatly appreciated.

May 16, 2005I have a question about Microsoft Configuration. First off, it's not there. I go to start > run > msconfig and get this: Quote: Windows cannot find Microsoft Configuration. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. I search for it and I find it, but run won't find it.I don't really want to have to put a shortcut to it on the desktop because my friends are idiots.

Feb 23, 2007http://edition.cnn.com/2007/TECH/0 [...] index.html
Quote :NEW YORK (Reuters) -- A U.S. federal jury found that Microsoft Corp. infringed audio patents held by Alcatel-Lucent and should pay $1.52 billion in damages, the No. 1 software maker said Thursday.
Microsoft said it plans to first ask the trial judge to knock down the ruling and will appeal if necessary. It said the verdict is unsupported by the law and that it had already licensed the technology in question from Germany's Fraunhofer.
Alcatel-Lucent had accused the world's biggest software maker of infringing patents related to standards used for playing MP3 digital music files.

Mar 19, 2005I am living in a shared residence and the guys here are running wireless adsl. It is an infrastructure network using 128bit WEP encryption. I'm not sure about their hardware but I am using an asus 54mbps usb stick. I have no problmes logging on but for some reason the wireless config. program automatically checks the "the key is provided for me automatically" option in the network properties. Now this prevents me from getting access to the network after any sort of disconnection. If I uncheck this box the stars in the key field (representing the WEP key) dissappear and so the key needs to be reentered. It only does this some times and since I don't have a copy of the key (the network administrator enters it on my computer) every couple of days I need to get the key re-entered on my computer. It is a real hassle and I can't work out why windows keeps defaulting to this option of having the key provided automatically.

Mar 22, 2008I have stopped some services running to speed up my computer but I have noticed recently it keeps reverting back to normal start up and I have to go through unchecking the services that are not needed again. It may be since I installed 'iplayer' from BBC website which uses the Kontiki p2p network. This uses a utility called k services and k host which runs in the startup. I disabled them as they connect to the network even when the program is shut down. How do I stop ms config reverting back to normal please?

Feb 19, 2008On Drive C Used Space 11.2GB Free Space 137GB (NTFS)I am expecting this drive to fill up over the next 18 months. Drive D Not used at present condition raw 40GB (I got that from the properties tab - after I had tried to get Windows to format it). How do I change it from raw state to something that can be used? I also have Seagate Free Agent 250GB external backup - Not Used at present. I have some software called Spotmau Power Suite 2008 but I am not really sure how to put this whole thing together.At the moment when I start the computer (Drive C) it runs CHKDisk on drive D every
time.
1)What Im really trying to do is format Drive D. I tried to do that with Windows but it didn't work. I dint know how to do this so any advice would be helpful.
2)I would like to use the rest of the capacity for backup that is Drive D and the Seagate external drive, but Im not sure how to go about it. Can someone help please?
3)Am I right in thinking it would be better to use just the one operating system Windows XP on drive C and not put it on drive D as well?
Configuration After Login
Apr 27, 2006I have what is hopefully an easy question: I have a windows "configuration" box that pops up quickly after I log in (XP Professional), then it closes down right away.It's like one of those "configuring personal settings" boxes that shows up after you install something, then reboot to complete the install. When you log in, the box pops up saying that it's configuring the thing you just installed.But this one goes by so quickly, I can't see what software it's trying to confiure. I uninstalled the couple of utilities that I had recently installed -- thinking they might be the culprits -- but it's still appearing. And since it's started appearing, my machine hangs for a couple minutes after login, like it's waiting for something to timeout. Before this started, life was good. Whatever it's trying to do, it's not being able to do, because it keeps running every time I log in. And my virus scan is completely clean.Anyway, my question is: does anyone know where Windows stores the information about installations or configurations that need to run on reboot? I've looked in the registry in the Run and RunOnce sections of both HKLM and HKCU, and there's nothing there. It's also not in the Startup folder.Obviously, there's some command somewhere that's running whenever I log in. I just need to find out where it is so I can figure out what's causing it.
